Here’s how to get started:
✅ Diversify your decision-making
Don’t leave hiring or promotion decisions to just one person. Involve a panel — and make sure that panel includes people from different backgrounds, genders, and perspectives.

✅ Rethink your recruitment strategy
Challenge how and where you recruit. Use blind CVs to remove unconscious judgement and advertise in places that attract a wider and more diverse range of candidates.

✅ Train your team on unconscious bias
Awareness is key. Provide regular training that helps employees recognise their own bias and understand how it impacts decision-making, teamwork, and fairness.

✅ Be open with your employees
Talk about what you’re doing to build a more inclusive workplace — and ask for feedback. Real inclusion means giving your team a voice in shaping the culture.

✅ Get honest feedback through anonymous surveys
Want the truth? Let employees share how they really feel — anonymously. (Top tip - use a trusted third party to manage the process and improve response rates.  We can help with this)

✅ Use exit interviews to spot red flags
When people leave, find out why. Are certain groups leaving more than others? Are there recurring issues? Exit interviews can reveal what’s not being said.

✅ Take complaints seriously – always
Discrimination, exclusion, or inappropriate “banter” should never be brushed off. Act quickly, investigate fully, and show your staff that your values are more than just words.
